sculpture

Alanna Lawley constructs temporary, site-specific representational environments that are influenced by the spatial and architectural relationships prevalent in domestic spaces. Using both construction and photography processes, she explores how fragmented spaces can generate experiences of disassociation, anxiety and isolation; emotions that deny the viewer the freedom to ever fully orientate themselves in a specific time or place.
Lawley graduated with a BA in Fine Art from Chelsea College of Art and Design in 2005. Through her international practice she has exhibited work in the UK, Germany and the US, and is currently based in Berlin.

All of me, 10,000 Lux for you plays with full spectrum lighting used in the treatment of Seasonal Affective Disorder (S.A.D) or Winterdepression. Through the construction Lawley attempts to reverse the increase in Melatonin and reduction in Serotonin production processes that can cause depression in the winter months due to lack of light.

Exploring the contradiction of an architecture designed to provide assistance, Lawley plays with the balance of curing the disorder and causing insomnia due to over-stimulation. The site-specific construction plays with mediated and shifting experiences of repulsion, seduction and denial of access, fostering an ultimate feeling of uncertainty.
